Prof Cameron Jones - Researcher Profile

Biography

Cameron works in the School of Physics at Monash University as a Professor

Cameron’s research areas of interest are:

• Jones' research ambitions lie with the development of new and fundamentally important areas of main group and transition metal chemistry which challenge previously held views on the structure, bonding and inherent stability of hydrido, low coordination number and/or low oxidation state metal complexes. The chemistry of such main group compounds is highly topical and in the past 5-10 years has led to some of the most important fundamental advances in the history of this field. Jones has published more than 275 papers, including 15 invited review articles and book chapters, in the area. Funding for his work has come from a variety of public, industrial and charitable bodies in the UK, Germany, Australia and the USA. He has attracted more than $6 M for projects on which he was/is the Principal Chief Investigator and a further $5 M for projects on which he was/is a Co-Chief. Jones collaborates extensively with a number of groups in the UK (Oxford, Cardiff, Bristol, Nottingham, Reading), US (Texas, Minnesota), Germany (Berlin, Freiburg, Karlsruhe, Marburg), Denmark, Netherlands, Switzerland and Australia.
